Welcome!

~located in Bath, Michigan~– where we integrate avian research, the training of current and future wildlife professionals, and the education of people of all ages, while showcasing the diversity of avian wildlife inhabiting mid-Michigan.

We have wrapped up a record-breaking field season at the Burke Lake Banding Station! You can visit our banding totals page to see the species list for the 4,216 birds banded this season alone! We also had over 550 visitors that came to the station during our 2 month field season. To all those that helped us reach our fund-raising goal for the 2017 field season – thank you! Your support is what makes it possible to do what we do best at BULA – share our love and knowledge of birds!

We are now fund-raising to support our spring and fall 2018 field seasons as well as new programs we are developing to engage with the community outside the field seasons. More details coming soon!
